It had me in a trance: Kohli describes his favourite knock

TIL Desk Sports/ India skipper Virat Kohli on Wednesday revealed his “favourite” knock was the one he played against Australia in the 2016 T20 World Cup and why.

Kohli had smashed an unbeaten 82 off just 51 balls while chasing down Australia’s score of 160 at the PCA Stadium in Mohali. The batsman’s effort saw the team win the game and qualify for the semi-final against the West Indies.

Kohli said he didn’t know how it happened as at one stage India needed 67 runs in the last six overs and a win from there looked like a distant dream.

However, Kohli had different plans and the right-handed batsman bludgeoned the Australian bowling attack smashing nine fours and two sixes.

The Indian skipper said the innings was so “special” that everything kept coming off while he admitted to being under pressure.
